Clive has a wobble at Chapel and Piero nips up the inside. As Clive recovers Piero slides wide into him. Piero has come form a long way back and is relying on Clive to make room. It is up to the overtaking driver to ensure that they can maintain a tight enough line to ensure that they do not hit the overtaken car.

This may seem similar to Brands Hatch but at the entrance to the corner here Piero is well behind.

Piero has a problem at Beckets and Roberto Teso slows. Ronnie senses a chance and moves across but cuts across Deans path. Dean brakes to avoid contact. Drivers should, in general, avoid changing station in a braking zone.

Clive has a wobble at Chapel and Piero nips up the inside. As Clive recovers Piero slides wide into him. Clive does nothing wrong here but being on the outside he could almost predict he will come off worse.

THIS POST IS FOR BOTH GRIDSF2 race at the classic Silverstone circuit. As we all know the circuit letâ€™s avoid the demolition derby last time out at Monsanto.We will maintain the Grid A & Grid B arrangement but both groups will race together. We will be using UKGPL7, which is back in operation.

ONE reset is allowed but the Shift R must be followed by a Stop & Go in the pit lane within TWO laps. If you Reset on the last lap a 15 second time penalty will be awarded. Drivers must complete 50% of the race distance to score.

Well that was good fun. Annoyed I had to reset after a crash, but it only cost me one place in the end. The top 3 finishers were too fast for me tonight.

I have already looked at the stats on replay, and I think many drivers tonight did a little too much exploration of the track limits. There is certainly one person I'd have looged a complaint against, had they finished ahead of me. I had 23/26 on track laps. One of those fails I was upside down, another I was avoiding Ronnie after he had an incident, not sure about the other one.

Overall, looks like a P3 for me in the A championship. Nice way to end the season, unlike the 66s last week..

Quali was very good, even with hardly a tow, comfortably got pole. Plan was to break the draft early in the race with a car that has less topspeed than the MS7, and that happened, Lap 1 and 2 were very good!

Was leading Roberto 11s, until I hit the inside wall in T1, and wrecked hard! I was too loose on turn in, after tires got hotter, and lost focus. Just could stay in front of RT, but car was damaged and got even looser on turn in. Every turn was a challenge, and couldn't run really fast laps. Concentrated to keep RT at bay and out of the draft, but almost threw the win away in the last lap...

Rarely have had such a tough race concerning handling, and was really annoyed about my crash earlier in the race, but happy with the win

Happy to be able to race, and keeping the championship alive after last race' debacle! Bring on Brands Hatch!

I was feeling good on cold tyres and was able to hassle Roberto for the first few laps until a warp contact at T3 fired me off and I was dropped to about 12th I think. Luckily no damage done and I did not need a reset or SnG. So back onto the track and burn rubber......................

The rest of the race was 99% on the limit and 1% over the limit at times as I picked up places until I was within sight of Dean with 2 laps to go and only needed a wobble from him to sniff a podium. Then my latency bars shot up and I waited for the inevitable.....disco

A bit miffed to have worked so hard only to be beaten by technology beyone my control!!

for mexico I have no point in the score...........???why?? Ahhh now I know, the rules said : each driver has discarded their worst two results. but i think that, missing race it s not a results, then it s crazy to consider it.

Marco, you've been in UKGPL long enough to know that this has always been the case..... It is based on what the real rules were in the 60s.....

Was a great race to watch the replay, especially behind me All the fights guaranteed that I could break away...weird thing again mechanical report doesn't give me damage. I think it isn't bulletproof, experienced it before, I was sure having damage as the car wanted to wreck with the least steering input turning in...

Thanks to Dave Curtis for letting me by in my pole lap. Very good waving me by, did you see me wave back? Also well done podium and finishers. Sorry to hear Clive, what a bad luck you are having this season...
